the clairvoyant pterodactyl

A place specifically designed for bbcode and divbox related questions! Need help figuring out a bit of code? Not sure why your code keeps breaking? Unsure if what you want to do is even possible? Fret not! This thread's creation is for the sole purpose of helping you figure out your coding, one question at a time.

Like Kat says and shows, you use Google fonts like the good old regular BBCode way and not with the use of CSS/div.

Though, you can also summon them. @darkflakes13 found out this nifty trick for us. If you use your Google fonts at the start of your post the regular BBCode way as Kat showed you can then ‘summon’ them through CSS with ‘font-family: your font here;’ as you continue. :D No need to keep on opening the BBCode tag then.

Also good to note is that only staff members and donators can use Google fonts.

As a few might have noticed a few codes have borked after the update. See the Bug reports thread to see what has been reported already. The admins are hard at work to look for replacements for the codes, but until then we have to make due.

For all the images that have vanished after the update

Some may have noticed that the (background) images of the div/css images have vanished. The solution is simple: put some text between the element (boxes/div =) of the background image. That should solve the issue. It is also the perfect time to start crediting the artist or face that you are using, if you haven't been into the habit already! :D

uh, I think the link to the Iwaku BBcode guide got murdered during the update? Unless you guys are revamping it right now... I was just rewriting the code on some sheets and needed to see how to do something really quick.

You can get to it by clicking the Help dropdown up on the top of the site and selecting "BBCodes" at the bottom of that. The url appears to have changed by one character, so that would be why the url in the first post doesn't work.
